White House doubles down on claims GOP defunded police
FNC ^

Posted on 07/01/2021 9:23:22 AM PDT by Eleutheria5

Blahblahblahblah Republicans didn't want to spend like drunk sailors and raise taxes, so they defunded the police. We need to re-think policing and empower the FBI.

Doubling down on stupid usually doesn’t work.

This administration is living proof that Ron White was correct!

2. Why is funding local police the federal government’s purview.

Because they want a national police force like the French Gendarmerie Nationale - which specifically takes care of the areas outside Paris.

Wonder if anyone will buy into this nonsense ? There was almost an entire year of “defund the police” by the democrats.
A lot of people are stupid but are they THAT stupid to fall for obvious gaslighting.

The reason why defunding the police took hold in Democrat-run cities is they wanted to spend the money on hookers and blow. Then uncle Joe, you and me would have to bail them out.

It's the typical liberal argument. Refusing to support an increase is "defunding."

Policing/Police Protection is a local issue—The fedguv has no role whatsoever in it.

The FBI needs to be abolished.

There was nothing in the bill that even mentioned police.

You can color your hair, dress to the max, lose weight, get plastic surgery, and many more things you can change.

But you can’t fix stupid.

The brain dead Democrat gullible hordes will believe and repeat every word and the Media will refuse to call them on their lies, as usual.

It will probably work in this case. The mainstream media will tell the sheep that the bill contained more funding for the police, but the GOP refuses to support it. No details will be given.

Most of the sheep will buy that.

Side story: I have a friend who is an old-school Democrat. She worked hard all her life. Nothing radical about her. And she takes everything NBC News says as if it came right out of the Bible.

I’m sure she’ll bring this up next time we talk. “Did you hear that the Republicans are trying to defund the police?”

Will I try to convince her otherwise? I might try, gently. But it will do no good.

The “defunding of the police” was a local decision, not one made by Republicans in Washington.

Had the decision been made to distribute additional largesse to the impacted communities, the supplemental money would NOT have been used to restore funding to the support of law enforcement, but would have been given to already bloated and highly ineffective schemes to continue pandering for votes by the local political machines.

Specious reasoning by minds devoid of any critical thinking.

Just look her square in the eye, tell her that Ron White was correct, and turn and walk away.
